With God all things are possible

The greatest struggles in life are the struggles we have with God. often, we yield to temptation and feel anger because we do not understand the ways of God. We may look at the wicked prospering and question why. we see ourselves as faithful and wonder why God seems silent.
Psalms 37 begins with an exhortation to not fret or become discouraged and is sprinkled with commands against becoming angry. The answer on how we do this is in verse 11 But the meek.... We received Christ by humbling ourselves at the cross without any sense of entitlement or selfish ambition .
Colossians 2:6 As you therefore have received Christ Jesus The Lord so walk in Him.
Once we have received Christ , we are to walk in that same humble manner.
We are to have no sense of entitlement, no demand for our way, no ego that must be stroked. This humble, cross centered life is reflected in the psalmist's commands. "Trust in The Lord". As you trusted Him with your soul at salvation, trust Him with daily living. "Delight" or enjoy The Lord. "Commit your way". Have Gods ambition, not your own. Desire His will. Then rest in The Lord. When we want what He wants, it follows that we can rest from our stress, trusting Him with the outcome.
For it is with God all things are possible
